I doubt that the problem has something to do with miktex. After all
I'm using no applications or settings from miktex, I'm only using
the roots as local roots.
I realised that my description above was not completly exact: The
last root doesn't have an // appended but /scripts//.
I found the function splitpathexpr and input.aux.expanded_path which
seems to get an input like
{Root1
Root2
Root2
Root4}
/tex//
where the last line depends on the file type, and the previous lines
have been made by expanding and splitting $TEXMF
$TEXMF = {$TEXMFMAIN;$TEXMFLOCAL;$TEXMFVAR}
and converts this to
Root1
Root2
Root2
Root4
/tex//
and I think that somewhere in the following processing the /<type>//
string gets appended only to the last root (Root4) instead to all
roots. (It is always the last root in $TEXMFVAR which gets the
string.)
